Description Arek Guzinski 2024-06-18 09:31:40 UTC
SUMMARY
Pressing the Tab key in a RDP session does not register in the client. Furthermore, after pressing it no other keyboard input works until I click into the window. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to a remote machine via RDP
2. Open some Application that should react to Tab (e.g. Notepad)
3. Press Tab key

OBSERVED RESULT
No Tab inserted; And no keyboard input after this.

EXPECTED RESULT
Tab inserted.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE neon 6.0
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
* Tried this on 2 Clients with same result. 
* Not happening with Remmina.
* My first idea was that Tab changes Focus to some invisible UI Element, but Shift-Tab / repeated presses of Tab do not fix the situation.
* This beeing RDP-specific is only a guess - I don't have any clients available to test other protocols.
